LAB SCHEDULE
This schedule will assist you in meeting the learning outcomes for NSG7334(L).
It is the recommendation of Faculty that you review the lab manual and then select from the listed
resources, the ones that best meet your learning style and the weekly learning outcomes.
The identified resources are not meant to be all-inclusive. It is recommended that for each week’s topic you
search the CNO website for standards of practice and RNAO Websites for Best Practice Guidelines.
Please note: the student is to use a critical eye when watching videos, as there may some
differences to how the procedure is taught in the text. It is the expectation that the student can
recognize these differences and apply the principles used in the text.
Weekly reading assignments are identified, including the resources, CNO and RNAO documents. Videos
are available as part of the textbook student resources. Please note that although the chapter is identified,
it is the student’s responsibility to locate the specific pages relevant to the topic. Should the student be
unable to use the link(s) provided, it is expected the student will locate the resource themselves on the
various websites.
It is necessary that you prepare for all labs. Lab time will not be used for showing videos. Some skills may
be demonstrated by the instructor.
You will bring your Perry and Potter Clinical Nursing Skills and Techniques text and skill book to every lab.
Some simulations will be video recorded to enhance the learning opportunity. Students are expected to
actively participate and will be assigned various roles for the simulations.
See Weekly Lab Schedule for content delivery.
